How long does it take muscles to get sore?

You basically tore your muscles, so your body is adding more muscle, which explains why you get stronger after a workout.


Is is bad for you to work out if your muscles are sore?

To work out sore musecls you set down or lay down, and rotate the arm or leg slowly and not very harsh. You do that for a minute or two the switch and go backwards instead of forward. Do this to your legs and arms whenever they are sore and they will feel better, then lay down and watcha a movie!No, you should not workout with sore muscles. If you work out with sore muscles instead of the muscle strengthening the muscle gets worn down and eventually, without rest, will rip and become worthless for one to two months, depending on how long it takes you to heal. You should devise your workout routine to work arm muscles one day and leg muscles the next, or whatever other thing you want to workout. Just make sure to give the muscles that you just worked out a day of rest and you should be fine.


Should you get sore after workouts?

Yes, that means you worked out hard and worked your muscles good. Being sore just tells you that you did a good work out and if you want to get rid of soreness faster, i heard you should eat/drink protein right after the workout. Actually, I believe that you should wait one hour after a workout before eating.


Why do protein shakes prevent you being sore the day after a workout?

The reason you do not get sore while you re drinking a protein shake is because it gives you the protein your body needs for your muscles to heal after a workout, therefore making you less or not sore.

Why do your muscles NOT get sore after a workout even after working them to exhaustion to the point where no more reps can be completed?

Your muscles are the strongest parts of your body, even if you work you muscles to exhaustion, they will not hurt. It takes an awful lot to make your muscles hurt.


What do you do for sore arm?

Continuing to work those sore muscles is what you shouldn't do. By continuing to workout, you put too much pressure on the muscles and instead of being strengthen, you tire them and they will rip therefore you'll have to see a doctor and you can't exercise for 1-2 months. And when your muscles are sore, give them days of rest until they aren't sore anymore, eating food will determine the energy for the sore muscles, and stretch them to make the pain go away.


If muscles are not sore after a workout will they still grow stronger and bigger does this mean they will not grow since they are not being worked enough?

If you are not sore it means you are not going to get any bigger. You are just lifting to maintain where you are now.


What happens to muscles when they are exercised regularly?

It can often be a cursing and blessing when muscles are exercised regularly. Muscles get tighter and become more stronger after time with the proper amount of exercise to them, but they can often be sore for several days depending on the severity and intensity of your workout. Always ensure that if you push yourself on a workout, you give your muscles a day to relax as to not strain them.


What exercise can a twelve year old girl do to build stronger muscles but not get sore?

If you not sore after a workout, your not going to gain muscle. When you lift, what you are doing is making tiny rips in your muscle, your body recovers by building new muscle to avoid it again. So if your muscles arent sore, your not going to gain any muscle.


Are sore muscles a sign that you are gaining strength?

Sore muscles are a sign you are over doing it. You should take it easy if you are just starting out, if not let your muscles gradually work out to getting what it is you wish to reach.
